Autocrypt is a standard that allows to send your public key with every message, along with a preference for how to deal with encryption. I.e. the sender chooses how he/she prefers to get emails. In that particular case the sender has specified to prefer unencrypted emails.
If you want to overwrite the sender's preference, you'll need to create a per-recipient rule for that email address. -Patrick On 11.05.2019 18:55, Rémi Saurel wrote: > Thanks Olav, Sebastian, > > You two gave me a hint on the problem. > > First, I did not realise that the debug log did not update itself in > live: I had to close the window and reopen it to get something meaningful. > > Then, parsing the relevant log, it seems that there is a per-recipient > rule: an autocrypt:// one.
